Guest Reviews for Nautilus and Seashell
"We loved every minute of our stay at Nautilus, it's just the perfect place. The views from every room are amazing. The decor and beautiful blinds were a delight. We were warm all the time and the beds were so comfy. It's in a fabulous location to explore the beautiful area around. Thank you for sharing this fabulous space."

"We had a very pleasant stay. Amazingly good views could have kept us happily occupied on their own but the call of the sea was strong and some slightly out of season swimming did not disappoint. The house is comfortable, very well equipped, and nautically themed. Strongly recommend."
Feedback, October 2023
"The house is beautifully designed, we loved the underwater theme. No matter what the weather the views are simply breathtaking. You can see all the way from Caldey Island to Tenby, and a big swathe of sea in between. The house is cosy and welcoming and a really good base for exploring. You can walk down to the beach in ten minutes and from there easily walk along the sand to Tenby and get the little train back if it’s too dark to walk back. There is loads to do nearby, castles, National Trust woodlands, beautiful beaches and boat trips. Highly recommend…..it also has a loo with the very best view!"

"Nautilus is a fabulous holiday home. The layout is excellent, with a large, comfortable living area and every room has an amazing view of the sea. The kitchen is well equipped and I loved the decor with the undersea theme. It is an excellent base for walks along the coast in both directions, and only ten minutes from the beach. Tenby is only half an hour\'s walk, where there are plenty of places to eat out."

"A delightful apartment. We were on the ground floor with fabulous views of the sea enjoyed even sitting at the table or from the sofa! Noone can park in front of the apartment so the view remains constantly unobstructed. No need to spend anytime researching interesting places to visit, best walks or beaches as the owners have a folder full of ideas waiting for their guests. Thank you"

“Nautilus - Outstanding property with a tasteful and quirky nautical theme. The views were wonderful, the area was fabulous, near Tenby but situated in a very quiet and peaceful place. If you want a combination of luxurious accommodation and wild walking, this is the place to choose!”

“Absolutely loved Seashells. An ideal apartment for my hubby and I. Beautiful views. Close to great areas to visit but lovely and ideal for rest and easy walks. The Cross Inn is excellent.

Communication was excellent. Price superb. So glad we chose a weeks holiday here. Winter or Summer this apartment is fab”

“My husband and I, plus my 85 year old father, thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Seashell. It was the perfect location for visiting West Wales, without needing to stay right in Tenby. The 'one level' appartment was great for my father. Also, near the beach, costal walks, and a great pub opposite serving fab meals. When we met Clare, she was very welcoming and helpful. We may well come and stay there again in the future.”

“The apartment was very nice with a fantastis view from the balcony. After the first couple of days the weather was brillant and we went on a boat trip round Caldey Island and saw some grey seals. Penally beach was great in the sunshine (got a good tan). We went on a guided walk round Tenby, the Tudor Merchants House, the Museum, to St Margarets Island at low tide and through the cave under the island. While we were there a repeat of Grand Designs about the old Life Boat Station was on TV. So when we went to new Lifeboat Station we knew what we were looking at. We also went to Carew Castle and tidal Mill, the Speed Museum a Pendine Sands and Cwm Deri vineyard. We had lunch every day at Tenby House Hotel the food was very good and cheap.”
